We ordered calamari which has no dipping sauce included,pan fried veg dumplings which is so greasy,egg roll also greasy after 10mins of our appetizer came,a group of people around 40 just arrived all together and as soon as the people seated,the waiter served all their appetizers and it was all same as what we have ordered
We were wondering why when we gave our order the food came in less than 5minutes,but the moment when we saw same appetizers that was been served on the big group then we knew why it was quick
Too probably the food was been sitting for few minutes then we ordered same item they might have reheated those food that ended up serving oily and greasy
So we just finished our food and asked for the bill and left.
Will might gave them a chance to visit it again but will make sure that there will be no huge group

Great gluten free options!
We ordered from 3 weeks ago and they were great! Then we order yesterday and portions smaller?! Food not as good! We are here at Helmsley medical tower for my husband's surgery and he can't eat today so we're looking forward to good meal.

Best dim sum restaurant in the city. Amazing, authentic food, large portions, kind staff, and impeccably clean. It has been my go-to place for Chinese food for over 10 years, and it continues to be my favorite.

Best dim sum in NYC. We do go to Chinatown dim sum for the fun atmosphere, however, nothing is better than this icon of the Upper East Side. A gem.

We live around the corner and have been ordering delivery from evergreen for years.Prices are higher compared to other Chinese restaurants in the area, portions are smaller. What prompted this review is my recent experience (all of my latest orders!) when I have to “beg” for duck sauce to be included for every dish we order.They started being too cheap and don’t give out any extras. They once charged me few dollars for an extra duck sauce on top of my $100+ lunch order. The only reason we have been asking fur ‘extra’ duck sauce as you receive a tiny container which is only 1/4 or 1/3 full ?!?! Are you guys that cheap? Please see the bill for three basic dishes and two tiny appetizers. Tip isn’t reflected on this bill. We always tip!

Monique, the hostess, was very welcoming and gracious. The dim sum was delicious, flavorful, and hot. The staff was all very attentive as they came around often to fill our teapots and give us new plates. The frog legs and Vancouver crab dishes were so fresh and delicious.

I live just a couple of blocks from this spotless cafe with friendly service, but upon bringing dinner home recently, remembered why it was so long since last doing it.The food is pretty much tasteless; watery egg drop soup and spareribs unimproved by an abundant amount of duck sauce.Wish it had been better.

The lunch specials here are more expensive than in other Chinese restaurants in the neighborhood. The prices are higher ($35.95 for 2 orders, tax included) but do not come with soup, soda or egg roll offered by others.The food is ok. They did accommodate my request to have a vegetable dish made into a lunch portion because the list for lunch specials is limited.

Ordered the orange beef and general’s chicken. Both were coated in a thick, sticky sauce. The chicken was mushy, the beef was full of fat. All around awful.
